troops in Iran, Trump tells NBC

Trump responded Thursday to Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi’s telling “NBC Nightly News” anchor Tom Llamas that his country is ready for a ground invasion by American and Israeli forces.

Trump called it a "wasted comment" and suggested an invasion is not something he is thinking about at this time.

“It’s a waste of time. They’ve lost everything. They’ve lost their navy. They’ve lost everything they can lose,” he said, adding that the pace and intensity of strikes will continue.
